How to stop AVS/AVT attack of the clones

1 ) Make the AVS 36 a BR2 LMG (Remove from BR5 and add to BR2. Replace those already purchased with AVT or make it legacy guns.). This will give the Soviets something to use other than the highly questionable Madsen. This will increase diversity in BR2. This will reduce the amount of clones in the rifle branch in BR5.

Also, many armies used rifles with automatic fire mode as something like ersatz machine guns.

2 ) Replace the AVT 40 with a twenty-round magazine with the AVS 36 with a twenty-round magazine for the upcoming update. This way we will not get two identical rifles with different magazines, but two different rifles with different magazines, which will avoid such a large number of clones in the branch and will diversify the BR5 gaming experience.

Objection, AVS-36 is a rifle and was used in the role of a rifle, its Fedorov Avtomat that was designed as a machine gun and was used as a machine gun.

Ok. Enjoy clones.

Only in Russian Empire and during the Russian Civil War (Maybe). During the largest and last documented (although Fyodorov’s Automat was still found in militia warehouses during the Battle of Moscow) use of Fyodorov’s Automat in the USSR, namely during the Soviet-Finnish War, Fyodorov’s Automat was used to arm assault or reconnaissance units on the Mannerheim Line, and in the USSR, Fyodorov’s Automat was used precisely as an automatic rifle or “assault rifle”, and not as a machine gun.

Have you heard of our little friend mkb,mp44,stg44,horn and probably something else.

Anyway, it would require rather heavy nerfing to even remotely be BR2 material.
So rather not.

Make it skins of the same gun for different maps :dromedary_camel: :dromedary_camel: :dromedary_camel:

Ok. Let it be something on the level of zb-26. Maybe a little better due to the smaller magazine capacity.

i laughed and stopped reading the rest of your post after this

Laughter prolongs life.

the AVS was not designed with sustained fire in mind at all, giving to machine gunners would just be stupid

if you want more br2 lmg variety then i keep proposing the DP27 with the type 11 MG style ammo hopper

Too easy.

Well, you know, I wouldn’t mind a DP with a hopper magazine in Soviet TT.

Pencil killer DP.

What do you mean???

During its testing, its danger of injury was demonstrated by cutting a pencil in half with the bunker lid.

Lol. Nevertheless, the DP with a hopper magazine was even adopted for service and participated in the Soviet-Finnish War.

After which it was all converted to use disks. Because the bunker holds less ammunition and its reloading takes more time than replacing the disk. In addition, they said then that a machine gun with such a magazine capacity is not a machine gun at all.

The AVS is a nice automatic weapon for early BR maps. A kind of reskin of the RPK-43 for tech tree.

Let’s assume that some of them remained in storage and were later distributed. Madsen also does not appear to be in service with the USSR, but nevertheless appears in the TT.

The Americans somehow got through the entire war with BARs and a few Johnsons, and nothing happened.

AVS does :dromedary_camel: :dromedary_camel: :dromedary_camel:

This was the opinion of specific people at a specific time. By the way, the BAR and Johnson use removable magazines, not bunkers. And in the case of the DP, we have a choice between a disk and a bunker. And the Red Army command reasonable decided that using a disk was more rational than using a bunker and stopped using it. It so happened that commanders from reality did not assemble setups for combat ratings.

After all the improvements, the Cossacks could count on either a shovel handle or this mortar.

The Germans don’t have a light machine gun like the Browning, so I suggest transferring the FG 42 2 with a 10-round magazine to 2 br. :camel: :dromedary_camel: :camel:
